Hammond has cleared waivers and has been sent to Binghamton (AHL).

Hammond went 0-2-0 with a 4.08 GAA and .837 SV% in four starts and two relief appearances with the Senators. Even with Craig Anderson away from the team for an extended period of time, Hammond fell way behind Mike Condon in the pecking order and was dealing with injuries of his own. He went unclaimed, so he heads to Binghamton where he is 0-2-0 with a 2.56 GAA and .907 SV% this season.

Hammond left Friday’s game with a lower-body injury and did not return.

Hammond was injured in the first period of Friday’s game and never returned to the game. The Senators are already without Craig Anderson, who is in Ottawa dealing with a personal matter, so they’re now left with just Chris Driedger and will likely recall Matt O’Connor as well if Hammond can’t play on Sunday.
